✦ Synopsis

Two chiral nitro alcohols, (S)-4-nitro-2-butanol and (S)-S-nitro-2pentanol were prepared enantioselectively by reduction of the corresponding ketones with bakers' yeast. Utility of organic nitro compounds as synthetic intermediates has been well established. 1)

Namely, the nitro group has facility to stabilize an a-carb-
